Now that we’ve learned how to greet someone, here are some practical words that you can use to ask or say something. Even if most of the sentence needs to be in English, it always makes a good impression to try to add at least ‘please’ or ‘thank you’ in German. Germans will be very pleased that you are making an effort to speak their language. They know how difficult it is!
| English | German |
| No | Nein |
| Yes | Ja |
| Thank you | Danke |
| No thanks | Nein danke |
| Welcome | Wilkommen |
| Sorry | Entschuldigung |
| Please | Bitte |
| Great! | Toll! |
| I don't understand | Ich verstehe nicht |
